Starting from the town of Pecorara, which is on the main road (SP34) between Nibbiano and Passo Crocetta, Passo Cá Del Diavolo (meaning the house of the devil) is on a secondary road in the middle of the nature. The road is OK whilst you are in Pecorara, but it becomes a bit worse (in terms of tarmac quality) once you leave the town. It is considerably worse on the other side of the passo, but you may still want to venture there to see the castle (Rocca d'Olgisio).
